It's almost disheartening kind of what (a small segment) TL has become, which I realize is inevitable since in many ways it's also beneficial for TL. The way I am bombarded in every Starcraft 2 thread I read with subtle plugs, promotions, and worst of all, this sort of false "I care about the community" vibe I get from a lot of people trying to work their way up or become known.


Haha I kind of agree a little bit with this. I remember there was a commentator bashing thread and it was full of people dropping their youtube links. I guess there's nothing wrong with that, it just rubs me completely the wrong way.

Hope I'm not violating the TL policy by creating a thread about the Practice Partner finder Web app I created. I figured it would be viewed as a benefit to the TL community vs some kind of bad self promotion, but if I'm wrong, please let me know and I'll stop posting updates to the thread.

This is the thread - Practice Partner finder Web app

i think we are missing part of the point here. if we are interested in esports and or great starcraft 2 games we are also interested in high quality streams and tourneys with huge pricepools. if casters who obviously work for the community by streaming their casts ask for donations to improve the quality of their streams and to host tourneys it should be good for the community too i guess.
we are not talking about pay-per-view here neither do i want to read pure "gimme money plzplz" threads. still, if theres a specific event which is streamed by a specific caster, he should be allowed to announce the possibility to donate... shouldnt he?
on air he will obviously ask viewers to subscribe youtube channels and his website and bliptv account and to read about donation options etc. anyway. if someone is not interested in the specific event he doesnt have to read the thread about it.

or what do i not get?
arent we happy that day9s face is now even more bright and shiny?

As one of the people still playing Starcraft I, I have a lingering concern about the sequel of the legendary game. For us the old guards, the old gamers who were around when Slayers_Boxer, the terran emperor, was dominant, we cant help but think that maybe just as Boxer's ,Nal_ra's or Nada's reign ended, so would ours over the new Bnet. Would our fingers still be able to adapt to the new mechanics of Starcraft II? Would we still be able to keep up with the ever changing strategies? Or would it be better for us to save face, retire and let a new generation of gamers take our place.

rest of it on

You seriously post an ad to another site promoting SC1 news in a thread telling you NOT to advertise on the TEAMLIQUID forums?

Is it just me or do people not pay any attention at all to where they post these days?

After reading this I understand the direction and point of view here. just want to post apology I didn't mean to violate any rules. I kind of thought this was contributing because I am spreading the word all together to new ppl that might be interested in SC. I don't know how I could contribute on a forum with so much knowledge when I am no pro SC player I will play it casually try to improve myself for sure and learn but there are so many ppl with knowledge of the game more superior to what I could ever contribute its hard to find a place if your new. Still I apologize and will follow forum guidelines on out.

Totaly agree.
And now many of them start with ads!
If someone have a usefull site why not posting it here?
in future you can sell maps over bnet. we dont know who will sell it and who makes it free.
so ban all mapmaker?

and i dont like the "OUR COMMUNITY and YOUR COMMUNITY" in op.
im part of A SC community and this site is part of it

I think it's pretty clear. Blatant, straight up advertising isn't allowed, while proven community members are allowed to plug things. I highly doubt anyone would mind if Raelcun or Day[9] or someone asked for donations for a tournament prizepot or something, but Johhny "registeredtenminutesagotopostalinktohissitethatyouhavetopaytouse" McRandom...different story completely.

i think its not so clear in practice.
just saying your postcount and your registerdate counts is hard.
i start on tl with a post over a custom map where i make a new version of qxc buildorder tester.
i didnt link a website there only direct download but other mapper link there own website.

so mod have to check the site and the post and decide.

noone likes add spam at a forum but see the post of Arcalious 4 above this.
he makes a good tool that help the community and is woried that his work could understand as ads for himself. So i think we dont want ad-spammer but people who really make good things should not be worryed to post there stuff...

So i dont think there could be a rule. people who want to spam there site ignore the rule and people who make good stuff and read the rules are not sure and could be end up dont post it here.

I think mods have to read and check all the post and the link to decide every time.

It's pretty easy to tell the difference between posts written up for advertising specifically and posts which someone took some time to put together to present something to the community well. See the difference between Arcalious's post and hannibalxx's post. People who are legitimately posting something don't have to worry, that's the point. The rule is aimed at people who register an account just to advertise, while (clearly) Arcalious registered, and while he may be promoting himself, that's clearly not his only reason for being here.

i understand but you dont need a rule to ban such idots or?
its a clear ban.
And btw i dont read many of such post here.
like chill said:
I remember there was a commentator bashing thread and it was full of people dropping their youtube links.

i remember this too and was only laughing. commentator who try to get subs in a thread where they bashing commentators.....
on the other hand if a commentator gets subscribes by posting here will stay with this site and perhaps get a part of the community over the time.
people can visit more than 1 site or channel so they dont take people away of tl...

This thought has been on my mind for sometime.

Could teamliquid set up a page or kinda database of the SC2 commentators out there? Like where you can find them, if they have a youtube channel or other (ustream etc). This would be really helpful to all the new players out there who are starting playing SC2.

I feel it would be better for the community if it would be easier to find out about the different SC2 commentators out there like when they started, how often they post vids, what type of stuff do they post and their type of commentary (analysis, entertainment, bronze/silver, coaching etc). Basically a chance for the commentators ONLY to give a bit of info about themselves and their commentary.

There are quite a few out there at the moment, I personally have had search alot and spend time looking for them out there on all the different places.

It sounds like a good idea to me

day9tv and iccup-tv on ustream are the two I know off the top of my head. Most cast tournaments will have a post about them in the SC2 Tournaments board (and ICCup TV has posts with schedules as well). There's a list of streams in the top right corner just under the calendar. Most of the good streams (not all) have a stream page here and will have a listing there when they are live.

I have used most of them before, but I mean something just for the commentators to write a bit about themselves briefly and teamliquid to verify that yes these people are legit commentators and you can find them here here and here. Kinda like a commentator portal (is that the right word?) that is policed by teamliquid

Oo

Blogs?
Each stream page has a description where the stream owner (or whoever has access to the particular page) can write whatever they want. Each stream also has a comments page.
